Go read and comment, if you feel like it. He's complaining his readers don't understand how blogging works, and feeling unloved. *tiniest violin ever*
It's not really a blog, I say. Use Movable Type or the LJ code, I say, but I do not think his webmaster agrees with me. I'm pestering them to set up an RSS feed so I can hook him up a real blog. Or something, I think.
Anyway. He's entertainingly rambly, and somewhere in there there is a picture of him morphing into a cane toad. Centre of the main page, and I think it's marked.
And now I am going to try and actually write something.
This show was all full of South Africans, but I saw it in the mid/late nineties on YTV, really reaaaallly late at night. It was called "Legend of the Hidden City" or "Hidden City" (the Internets do not agree), and it had four archaeology students accidentally finding a city full of period (I think) Mayans... possibly...? Does anybody else remember this or know if it's on DVD?
Secondly, an Aussie brother and sister fall through a magical portal into Imperial China, and at some point the sister is zapped into another dimension where a whole lot of French people (read: powdered wigs, corsets and crinolines) have taken a youth serum and therefore can't have babies, so they try to feed it to her so she'll be a child forever and can be loaned to each couple in turn.
I did not imagine these shows. It's like Ocean Girl. They've just vanished. :(
UGH. Can I say, as an academic, I cannot express deep enough sympathy for what it must be like to work for a bunch of academics. Frustrating as hell has to be the least of it. Ack.
